By Bill Walkenshaw Here's a note to Medford High Alumns now attending the Uni versity of Oregon. We don't usually report the local high school activities but one can hardly pass up the steamroller Medford High eleven. The Medford Tornadoes, according to Coach “Tex” Oliver, could give even a college team a rough afternoon. The southern Oregon prep school conference picture took a change over the week-end, although it fooled everyone. Ashland pulled a belated fourth quater rally to take a 19-7 decision over Grants Pass, which now makes the Ashland-Medford game in Medford Nov. 12 loom as the contest for the league champion ship. Previously Grants Pass was pictured as being the thorn in Medford’s side. However, figures and comparative scores mean nothing as Oregon rooters can easily tell you and anything can happen before the thing is finally settled. Medford is now on top of the heap with one conference win and no losses. Grants Pass and Ashland are knotted with a win and pair of defeats. We wonder what will happen under the lights of Los Angeles Coliseum tonight when the Webfoots of Oregon play their first night game of the season against UCLA. This game will be Uncfer entirely different conditions than the Ducks have ever played. Not only is it a night game, but it is also 1200 miles from home, and will be in a larger stadium than they have ever played in. You can easily see what the Oregon eleven is facing down in Los Angeles. Besides being pitted against one of the top teams of the coast. UCLA will definitely have the advantage as they will be on their home grounds and will he used to the warmer climate of southern California. Also, Rossi, leading ground gainer, for the Pacific Coast, will be lugging the leather for the UCLAns. This will be Rossi’s last game as he will be inducted into the Navy next week. It’s too bad Oregon did not schedule the Bruin club later in the season as they will be a weakened squad without Rossi’s running and defensive play. ' Both Jake Leicht and Bobby Reynolds will be needed at their top form for this game as the UCLA club has a fast charging line and a team composed of all lettermen. Their line is one of the heaviest on the coast and should give the still questionable Oregon forward wall a lot of trouble. Oregon State’s basketball coach was greeted by CO hopefuls to show their stuff on the hardwoods before the opening of the coming season. Using eight returning lettermen for a nucleus. Coach Gill will mold the 1946 Orange and Black squad from the ranks of two sophomores, 23 freshmen and four NROTC men. Seven of the civilians are returned veterans and will join the four sailors in an attempt at reconversion. Varsity practice will be held three times a week starting sometime after midterm.

And it's “action plus” with the gals on the intramural teams, for the first two weeks of this seasons’ games have been anything but dull. The early season games have all the spirit and fight, of the best games. A perfect example of this was shown Wednesday, when the Kappa Alpha Thetas met the Alpha Chi Omegas in a fast and furious game that left Thetas the victors to the tune of 33 to 31. Both teams showed evidence of hard practice by their amazing display of team work. Genevieve Siskey Stars Also Wednesday, Zeta Tau Alpha was trimmed by Hendricks Hall who, having previously lost to Highland House, evened up their tournament standing—one defeat and one win. The outstand ing player of the game was Hen dricks Hall’s Genevieve Siskey, who is a “mean spiker’’ at the net. The Delta Gamma’s have two exceptional players that merit at tention—Barbara Borrevik and Martha Berg, both playing net position. The only game played, which was with Rebec House, was won 35 to 22. The results of Thursday’s game are: Sigma Kappa ..25 Alpha Gamma Delta .37 Highland House .37 Kappa Alpha Theta .29 This is only the beginning of the season and the standings now may or may not have any resemblance to the final results. A team is com posed of the players and it's sup porters and without the full coop eration of both halves neither can be expected to do its best. After two weeks of organized practice and nearly two weeks of regular tournament games, the various intramural team standings are: Two wins, no defeats: Delta Delta Delta Susan Campbell Hall Alpha Gamma Delta One win, no defeats: Kappa Kappa Gamma Delta Gamma Judson House Hilyard House One win, one defeat: Rebec House Hendricks Hall Sigma Kappa Kappa Alpha Theta Highland House One defeat: Alpha Delta Pi Pi Beta Phi Alpha Plii Orides Alpha Chi Omega Zeta Tau Aipiui Alpha Omicron Pi Alpha Hall Delta Zeta Gamma Phi Beta Two defeats: University House No games: Alpha Xi Delta Chi Omega Literary Page Returns To Emerald This Week Starting this week, the Emerald will devote one page a W’eek to short stories and poetry written by students of the University.
